Katy Perry (Re)Mixes With Missy Elliott

Fans of Katy Perry‘s ‘Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)’ will soon be treated to an official remix featuring none other than femcee Missy Elliott.  According to Billboard, the Missy-assisted version of the track will hit radio and digital outlets on Monday, August 8th.

As the song has been resting in the Hot 100’s #2 spot for quite sometime now, the remix could generate the airplay and sales Perry needs to push it to #1; thusly, tying Michael Jackson‘s record for most #1 songs from one album.  Her previous singles ‘Teenage Dream’, ‘Firework’, ‘California Girls’, and ‘E.T.’ have all held the top spot.

In Missy Elliott news, the ‘Work It’ rapper is said to be working on her own forthcoming project entitled ‘Block Party’.

  2. jasmine August 5, 2011

    Soo f****** desperate for a #1. LOL its sad and pathetic, tbh. MJ never had to work this hard for his music to go #1

  3. Dabest August 5, 2011

    it already went #1

  4. bloodclate s*** August 5, 2011

    on better new……………rihanna is in barboes right now on her #loudTourBarbados and she is also filming the videoo for cheers there which y’all already kno is on its wat to #1 on bb100
    who runs this motha***

  5. . August 5, 2011

    @DABEST

    only on pop charts, not the hot 100.

  6. RealMusic August 5, 2011

    @Jasmine I agree she’s been thirsty, and it went #1 on the pop charts not the hot 100

  7. RAHHH August 5, 2011

    ..I would rather Katy be #1 than Ricycle to be honest. Both are trash, however.

    Missy probably doesn’t even realize she’s being used, much like Onika for the TTWE remix.

  8. kimberly August 5, 2011

    @ blootclat who currss with that h**. She should remain in Barbados. The music industry will not miss her screechy voice. ouch! mad at katty collab already h**, i didn’t know it was a competition?
    I grew up listening to the greats and non of them used collaborations as crutches, now every artist need another fan base for more hits and or popularity. Why can’t artist think of recording a song and not feature someone else?

  9. dang August 5, 2011

    If it wasn’t for Titty perry’s boobs, she would still be singing christian songs.

  10. BLACK August 5, 2011

    yesssssssssss cant wait to hear it

  11. Badd August 5, 2011

    @Jasmine
    exactly.

  12. PYTFROMAL August 5, 2011

    She’s looking so desperate for another #1 as it looked like it would stall at #2 on BB Hot 100. This song came out in June and they’re just now rushing out a remix single for sales. 🙄

  13. noodles August 5, 2011

    Smh. This is sad. Like all of Katy’s singles I have been feeling but it’s obvious her and her team are beyond desperate for her to tie with MJ’s record. And it’s sad. But even if this Remix does help her get the #1 her team should keep in mind that her breaking this record will still NOT help her in ANY way be able to hold a candle to the KING. She ain’t half bad but she needs a lot more talent to be up there with legends. She has more work to do than to throw around hit singles. The KING wouldn’t have to work this hard for a #1. He got his #1’s because he was truly amazing. That’s the thing with music today. I’m not gonna be one of those people that act like music today sucks so bad it’s not even the music it’s the artist and their lack to actually try and be a good artist. MJ isn’t the King because he broke records IMO he is the King because he was an amazing artist and made amazing music.

    People think that making hit songs make you a true artist these days and it doesn’t. Instead of these artist and their teams paying all this money to promote and remix singles just to break records how about you pay to help them get some talent? And getting #1’s really isn’t what it used to be. The sad thing is people think if you break these records you will be up there with the legends…nuh uh.

  14. noodles August 5, 2011

    I mean I can’t diss how hard their working just to say she tied with MJ with getting the most #1’s or whatever off an album. She better WERK. But when you remix a song just for it to be #1 because you see it’s not gonna be that’s when you are sad. It makes her look thirsty. But she isn’t the only one to do it this year. Rihanna did it with S&M. Then Britney tried it with Til The World Ends…I guess the new thing is when your song isn’t the big hit you want it to be you remix it…like no let it be what it is and do another single if anything. Obviously the orginal isn’t #1 for a reason.

  15. Those That Cannot Do, Stan August 5, 2011

    Yesssss Missy is the only rapper from yester year I’m looking forwarded to, Katy was smart as hell to get her on a track.

  16. That Tree August 5, 2011

    Thank u everyone for spilling the truest tea ever seen on TGJ. Like I tried to tell Kunty Perra’s delusional stans, #1 hits does NOT equal respect from everyone. This thirsty b**** is only trying to get this 5th #1 so that she can be compared to MJ. B****, you will NEVER be in same league or have as much respect as him. The difference is simple. He was a legend who actually had talent, and Kunty is a hypocritical basic b**** who can’t sell albums like she can’t raise her arms above her big saggy titties. I swear if this goes #1, I will lose all respect for the general music buying public, top 40 radio, just the music industry in general.

    Anyways, I have an idea. Don’t fall for this cheap trick and download every song in the iTunes top ten BUT LFN and we can safely keep Party Rock Anthem or another song at the top spot.

  17. YeaBey Is Schoolin’ Life August 6, 2011

    I can’t wait to hear Missy’s verse….I miss her music….

  18. Queen Beyonce Stann August 6, 2011

    Really Does She Need Another Number 1 This Era?
    D E S P E R A T E!
    But I Wanna Hear Missy’s Part 😀 She Never Gives A Wack Verse Unlike ONIKA #OOPS :)!

    #KingB2011

  19. nice_gurl August 6, 2011

    She is so desperate for #1s. That’s all she wants.

  20. lol August 6, 2011

    i agree with everyone else Katy mosty definately pulled out ALL her tricks to try and get this song to number 1 and tie with Mj

    Glee Cameos
    Legendary Saxophone player cameos
    Utilizing popular network sites like Facebook and twitter
    Alter egos
    Rebecca Black cameo
    Aiming at tween and high school demographics

    and this b**** still didn’t go to number 1
    Now she pulls a remix out of her a**

    ENOUGH ALREADY DAMN !!

    I wouldnt even mind her tieng with Mj or even breaking his record if she actually put out good music because last friday night is the worst song shes ever released as a single

  21. SMH AT SOME PEOPLE HERE (ISTANN4GAGA) August 6, 2011

    Ummm….I like Katy but Gworl…this better not be just something to boost your song to #1…we all seen what happened to S&M.

  22. Beyonce>Kelly…………….. August 6, 2011

    E-Yess We Been Waiting For Missy & Some New Music ! So She Can Help Stop This Monopoly S*** In The Female Rap Game !!!! Nicki Minaj “The Queen”……..Pshhhh FOH !

  23. JohnVidal August 6, 2011

    This is the same case as Rihanna and Britney´s collabo. That song wasn´t going to be #1 and they were desperate cos the only thing Rihanna can achieve are fake and fast #1 singles.
    Respect? Who the hell has respect for Katy Perry??? LOL
    If she achieves this #1 I blame you all for buying this crap again and again. It´s in your hands people!

  24. LTM August 6, 2011

    Desparate for a #1? Its called being smart. Shes inches from a record breaking achievement, it would be stupid not to do a remix. Say what you want, but it will hit #1 and make history

  25. GangsterA August 6, 2011

    Can’t wait to hear it at least its not with some pop singer like the other girls do

  26. Perry Power August 6, 2011

    @That Tree
    LMFAO!!! You are the definition of pressed b****. By every song in the top 10 on iTunes. Hell, buy the whole top 20. It wont make a difference. Katy will slay the Hot 100. Last Friday Night will hit #1. You will DEAL B****!!!

  27. Haiku August 6, 2011

    Glad to hear Missy is back BUT if she jumped on PARTY with Beyonce now THAT would be amazing

  28. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) August 6, 2011

    So, that’s GREAT for Missy.What a way to come back in the airwaves!!!GO MISSY

    Now, the fact that Katy Perry is trying to tie MJ’s record shows how much the industry has gone bad.Micheal Jackson (great singer, mindblowing dancer, pop icon, legend, had a true vision) and then Katy Perry (bad singer, horrible dancer, no impact on the pop culture, no intense vision)Sigh

  29. SHANIQUA August 6, 2011

    EVERYBODY BUY LMFAO PARTY ROCK ANTHEM ON MONDAY AND KEEP IT AT NUMBER ONE!!!!!!

  30. THE ICONIC pop royalty (I’m a rude Boy) August 6, 2011

    i will only DOWNLOAD it for missy ! i love missy and she should back and clean this mess called nicki minaj ! i miss missy “GET YOUR FREAK ON” !

    katy perry ————-> you are a “DESPERATE” and u always need other ppl to go #1 :
    RAPPER SAVE A H** WITH BIG TITS :
    1-snoop dogg
    2-kanye west
    3- missy eliott !
    4- who’s next b**** … WILLOW SMITH ?!

    BUT I’M AGREE THIS IS A SMART MOVE ! and will probably go to #1 cuz ppl are dumb and some b****** are worshiping billboard basic b****** charts !

  31. YOOSONDALOOSE August 6, 2011

    Well done Missy.
    This should really put her back on the top!
    I think Katy could get 5 number 1s.
    Well done to her, but she is getting 5 number 1s? E.T should not have been 1, Bey should have some.

  32. UGh August 6, 2011

    ya’ll really gonna let this b**** another #1 for this wack song? I like some of her music but this one is just a no. it does not deserve it.

  40. matt August 6, 2011

    katy and rihanna are like two peas in a pod, both so desperate to see their names atop the billboard hot 100, probably f****** for tracks as well, #nosurprisethere

  41. milly August 7, 2011

    This is beyond pathetic! Just shows stupid the music industry is nowdays.

    Katy Perry should not even be mentioned in the same sentece as the legendary Michael Jackson.

    (HAS THE WHOLE WORLD GONE MADD!)

    Michael Jackson FOREVER!

  42. Tom August 9, 2011

    if she brokes and furthers alien jacko jackson record then ill be all smiles
    that stupid human being who cannot stand his own skin color should die way back then.

    alright he did great for music but what i think he did was to build a sound for his own that work for 3 album, off the wall, thriller an bad then he keep repeating all over again LAME!! that’s why MAdonna is way ahead and better fot music history.

    katy is still learning and hell yes ¡EVERYBODY want to be no. 1 in an industry all that matters is how much you achieve. f*** hell yeah get that 5th no, 1 gurl!! own it!!! and then realease Peacock and get the 6th no. 1.
